Omigoshthisiskindalastminute but I am having a sale and giveaway! Both because I still have some surplus art books on hand before I make my next order, and because I love you guys so much.
So here’s the deal:
- Like or share this post, and/or…
- …Like my slowly-yet-steadily-being-refurbished Facebook fan page! It’s coming along.
- Feel free to share the post more than once- I’m feeling generous.
- Spread the word, if you’re the gambling sort, until the 16th
- After the 16th I will randomly draw five winners from the entrants, each of whom will get signed art books, including a personalized sketch of their choice on the inside cover!
- I’m going to try to ship the art books out by the 21st, allowing for domestic arrival by Christmas Day.
- If you do not observe Christmas, I will take my sweet time with your sketch and it will be awesome.
I never have time to do sketches for people outside of conventions, so I’m trying to change that up a bit- we’ll see if I stress myself out in the process, but it’s worth it. :)
Best of luck, everyone!
SAM SPRATT’S SPRING PORTRAIT CONTEST/CUSTOM PORTRAIT/SIGNED PRINT GIVEAWAY!
Spring is around the corner which means as thanks to you for following me here, as usual—I am giving TWO of you the chance to win a custom portrait made by me, custom-tailored to your heart’s desire. Free, no strings attached. The rules are simple, but read them so you can win.
What You Get:
A Web-resolution (1100 pixel) custom portrait, tailored to your most bizarre of requests. You can get a very traditional portrait done or as outlandish as you can dream. Zombies, Hipsters, Pirates, Ninjas, Superheroes, Robots, etc. are all fair-game themes in which you can have yourself transmogrified in painted form.
ADDITIONALLY, I’ll be giving 3 runner-ups their choice of a 13”x19” signed velvet archival print. Choices are: Sherlock, Ron Swanson, and Inspector Spacetime.

This also counts as an entry.
TUMBLR: Just reblog/like this post!
How long this will last:
This contest will run until April 6th, 2012.
You all are the best! Good luck and thanks again to all who follow my little slice of artwork on the web.
NOTE: You must be a follower or subscriber at the time of the win.
Why all this? Well, you’ve gotta write a big check with quite a few zeros at the end of it to commission art from me—and call me crazy, but I firmly believe that in a perfect world, people *should* get to own art AND do things like “pay rent”, “eat food-like substances on occasion”, and maybe even “continue to live”. Two of you can do that, the rest of you… you’re screwed. Sincerely, <3 Sam
